LG BP740
The price isn't right for LG's flagship Blu-ray deck
Attractive feature list, Magic Remote operation, Superb pictures and slick DLNA performance
Plasticky build quality, No 4OD, ITV Player or Demand Five, Overpriced

LG BP740 review
The LG BP740 has a high price tag but not very high specs
Smart TV interface ; Netflix, Spotify & Amazon Instant ; Handy Magic Remote ; Excellent picture quality
Single HDMI output ; Slow user interface ; Lacks some catch-up TV apps ; No 4K file support
Despite a polished-looking smart TV interface, this high-priced deck disappoints on its lack of both UK catch-up TV apps and processing power.
